Chapter 464: Finally Showing His Fangs!
Chapter 464: Finally Showing His Fangs!
When Aoba calmly walked in from the outside, other than Fugaku and Hiashi who had been standing on his side for a long time, everyone else was shocked!
There was no one present who did not know him!
Even Jiraya, who had been traveling outside, had heard of this name.
After returning to Konoha, he had heard of it countless times!
However, how old was he?
He was 15 years old!
Was it because he was young, just like the 4th Mizukage?
But how was that possible?
The rumors that Jiraya heard weren't like this!
Thus, he looked at Aoba curiously. Aoba returned a polite smile and then calmly sat down on the other side.
Bang!
"What kind of joke are you playing? This is choosing the future 5th Hokage, not a child playing house!"
"Proposing a fifteen-year-old kid to be the 5th Hokage? Do you think this is child's play" 𝚏𝚛ee𝐰𝗲𝚋n𝐨𝘃𝗲l.𝐜𝐨m
Not only did the two elders think so, but the rest of the people also agreed.
Although Aoba had always threatened to be the 5th Hokage since he was very young, to be honest, not many people took it seriously, and the Hokage was not something that anyone could be.
Youth was his capital, but in the matter of elections, it became his shackles.
No one would believe that a thirteen or four-year-old Hokage could lead Konoha to prosperity and prosperity.
Maybe when he grew up, these people would believe that he was a strong competitor for the Hokage.
They all thought that Aoba made a wrong choice at the wrong time.
However, Aoba did not get angry with the two old helpers. He stared at his palm without saying a word, as if he had understood the truth of the universe.
However, he did not speak, so naturally, his 'spokesperson' was responsible for helping him refute.
Fugaku first made a gesture for the two elders to calm down, and then very calmly explained, "In the development of our Konoha, is there any rule that states how many years and below can not become the Hokage?"
"You are forcing your words! Is there no clear rule that anyone can become the Hokage? Why don't you come with a baby to run for the Hokage? I absolutely agree with it!" Koharu immediately ridiculed him.
"Elder, you are too serious. The position of Hokage is naturally not something that anyone can do. Then let all of us put down our prejudices first and ignore the issue of age to take the assessment."
"First, in terms of strength, to become the Kage of a village, having strong strength is the foundation. Am I right?"
"Do you think this kid has such strength?" Homura coldly said.
This time, it was Fugaku's turn to show a surprised expression, "Don't you two elders think so? Let's not talk about how many A-Rank, S-Rank dangerous missions, and how many enemy of Jonin Level has been killed. Just a month ago, Aoba defeated the Ichibi Shukaku in order to save the village."
"Do you two think that such a record is not enough to prove the strength of Jonin Aoba?"
Listening to the whispers of the others, the two old helpers immediately closed their mouths with ashen faces.
In the face of the truth, if they doubted the strength of Aoba again, it would be pure nonsense, treating everyone as fools.
So they could only snort coldly, admitting this point.
Fugaku immediately smiled, and then pursued, "Just now, the two elders mentioned a keyword, reputation. It is very true. In order to become the Kage of a village, in addition to strength, there must be fame and prestige, so that everyone can be convinced. No matter how strong an unknown person is, he can't be recognized by others."
"Then in this regard, I don't think I need to say anything more about the reputation and reputation of Aoba."
"Because Aoba have made a lot of contributions to the village and paid for many good deeds, so the people in the village trust Aoba very much, and his fame has spread throughout the whole world. Now, who doesn't know that our Konoha has a Madman, and even the Tealed-beast has been beaten!"
"Is this kind of reputation not qualified to sit here? Then I really have to doubt the motives of the two elders. Are you really working for the development of Konoha?"
The two old helpers were rendered speechless by Fugaku!
What was even worse was that the direction of the entire meeting had already begun to lean towards Aoba.
Fugaku's examples were too sensational.
To be honest, the reason he was able to sit here right now was entirely because he had eaten old books. Because his past achievements and fame were too astonishing, he was regarded as a 'savior'.
But if one really had to take it seriously, in the years that Aoba had risen, there had been nothing to do with Jiraya, and there were only a few children who knew who Jiraya was!
Moreover, these years Jiraya had left Konoha, and he didn't come back even after several disasters. Now that he chose the next Hokage, he came back. It was inevitable that people would have some complaints.
If there really was no other choice, it would be fine, but now, apart from the topic of the old man, who was always talking about other things, could it be that Aoba was really inferior to Jiraya?
Everyone had a balance in their hearts, and they would weigh the pros and cons between the two.
The final conclusion was also very interesting. At least it would not be one-sided support for Jiraya!
Then, at this time, Hiashi who did not speak suddenly said, "I also propose that Shinomiya Aoba become the 5th Hokage. Konoha should be developing in the front instead of immersed in the memories of the past."
The moment Hiashi opened his mouth, it was like adding more firewood to the fire!
One was an Uchiha, and the other was a Hyuga. Weren't these two fellows always at odds?
Why were they suddenly on the same side?
Were they really optimistic about Aoba, or did they come to some sort of agreement privately?
Hiss..
Many people immediately gasped, as if they could see that today's meeting was not simple.
The two high-level consultants, along with the Uchiha, were working together for Aoba. The information contained in this could not be underestimated.
And this power was absolutely not to be underestimated!
For a guy who was born as a war orphan to be able to reach this stage and sit here and openly compete for the position of Hokage, this really made them not know what to say.
Strength, reputation, connections, backing... this guy was not lacking in any of them!
The only weakness that could be attacked was the aspect of age.
For a time, the eyes of the others that looked at Aoba actually had a bit of awe and fear!
